Investigation of Physical Processes in the Gas Discharge Region Between Liquid Electrodes

Electrophysical, hydro-gas-dynamic, and thermal characteristics of a discharge arising between liquid electrodes are considered. Spatial visualization of flow patterns in the gas discharge region is performed by using the schlieren technique.     

The COVID-19 pandemic: model-based evaluation of non-pharmaceutical interventions and prognoses

For the electrically actuated microbeam subjected to a combination of DC and AC voltage loadings, we studied the nonlinear dynamical responses and internal resonance analytically. The flexible boundary condition is considered. The modal interaction due to three-to-one internal resonance between the first and second modes is highlighted. The method of multiple scales is employed to get the modulation equation, which describes the amplitude and phases of the involving modes. Then, the equilibrium solutions of the modulation equation are calculated and their stability is examined. The frequency and force response curves reflecting the primary resonance (the first mode) are presented. We find that the first and second modes in the proposed model are coupled, and hence the energy transfer can occur between the involving modes. Moreover, it is found that the response of the system may encounter Hopf bifurcation for some specific parameters. As for simulation, the Galerkin scheme is applied to verify the analytical results in terms of time history, phase-plane portrait, Fourier spectrum, and Poincare section. The simulation results are in good agreement with the analytical ones.
